Planners and date books for moms (and dads)
In between - try and schedule some time for yourself too, will you! Moms need play time as well, to remember what adult conversations and adult interests look like, sound like, feel like. With your husband - or without - make sure you get to relax too.
Most of these are for moms. For those dads out there who are taking on the organization of their families and for whatever reason not leaving it up to mom - some of these do come in colors that I don't think you'd be ashamed to walk around with.

Dated Organizer for moms 2009-2010
Leather family organizers: daily and monthly pages included

It's hard to find a good organizer. I've looked online and most come without a dated calendar set. For some reason most merchants prefer selling undated ones. You, the customer should stand up for yourself and buy a dated calendar. After all - these things are supposed to be helping you get and stay organized. It's not very practical to have to go in and fill in all the dates of the year manually.These organizers for parents by MomAgenda are therefore DATED.
Comes in Grey and Dark Red.
If you already have one, you can of course get a refill.
All MomAgenda products can be embossed and personalized. Colors available for this product: Gold, Silver and White.
Family_time.mine Tan Pottery August 2009-December 2010
I guess it really depends on HOW you want to go about organizing your family and how many recurring activities your family has. If the schedule is pretty tight, simply writing down the schedule once (instead of each week) is probably a good idea. That's just how this planner is set up.
Any exceptions can be put in the weekly pages. Each weekly page includes a section for notes as well as squares for each weekday.
